After 8Ys + 26Wks

Standard

Thank you so much, Dr. A. She gave Mei-Shun a phone call meaning “Yes” on weekend, made an ex-inpatient and her husband feel delighted. Oh, it was the same date of March when some comments accompanied previous okay. By the way, she had planned to see both Drs. A and N in next appointment 2024. On the other hand, application deadline for the latter is the middle of coming November.

Mei-Shun safely received a pair of tickets for sumo 九州場所, to visit with Shin and Mikan-chan. Oh, 正 means “front”, the same angle as we see bouts on TV. Since it was said seats had been invisible until Saturday, they did not know which would be theirs among 4; above 正面, 向正面, 東 and 西. Only concern here is if they could recognize winners without audio commentaries.

Serene Standing

Standard

Ms. Piano, your tranquil posture always calms Mei-Shun down. Please listen, she meant to walk in a pair of high-heeled sandals toward a new hair salon yesterday. Putting on horsey-riding boots at least twice a week these days, her feet seem to forget how to stroll in such elegant shoes. However, just a few steps resulted in a broken belt. And sorry for her mistake in yours, Mr. Treasure.

New Numbers

Standard

Mei-Shun sang with Ms. Piano before preparing for dance with Ms. Carino Piccola. In retrospect, she made friends with above musical instrument decades ago. A plump girl was tired of 30-minute practice every weekday after coming back from kindergarten. Now grown up enough, she recently lost weight of another sugar bag. Would you make her acquaintance to continue?

Great Gecko

Standard

Hello, welcome back to Shin, Mikan-chan and Mei-Shun. Called 家守=yamori meaning home protector, they have been quite loved by our family so far. Fluffy paws sometimes hit tails of babies, yet never tried to eat them. They seemed to keep their distance from here while covered with a massive net and strangers in daytime. Now it returned toward a place to feed them at night.

Double Drive

Standard

Mei-Shun got on Ms. Scarlet at noon to visit a hospital in 牛久 for annual check up today. Her previous one was at the beginning of March, just one week before seeing Dr. A. It was a bit too hard to have twice a month, so she chose August for the former. September would find her at another hospital in 土浦. By the way, it is also tough to go under such fierce sunshine, isn’t it?

Blue Brand

Standard

Mei-Shun tried to change filter of a water purifier by herself. She has asked Shin to do it, yet such a chore seems to be for the wife. Oh, here is a spare which he tried to find in his study. Now 3 others are ready, 3 years guaranteed in future. However, older one never moves even if twisted by her all-thumb hands. She told it to the husband, who used only a second to remove it.

First Fraction

Standard

Mei-Shun came back to her sphygmomanometer. Getting awful heat rashes on both arms with slight scratches augmented, she has been forced to stop using this machine for a week. Oh? the numerator appeared last time was 5, wasn’t it? On the other hand, denominator seems to range from 1 to 30. So it continues to work, never minds if users are diligent like itself or not.

Time Travel

Standard

So this is the last day of solar July. Shin flew to the U. S. for business on Saturday, while Mei-Shun stays with Mikan-chan at home. The wife always follows the husband on a flight schedule site, that made her feel a bit weird yesterday. He left at midnight, arrived in the evening of the same date?? Well, 16-hour difference gives such a sense. One of our dreams has already come true.

Technical Term?

Standard

We have 小暑=shou-sho, the 5th of summer 二十四節気 today while also 七夕=tanabata, when 織姫=orihime and 牽牛=kengyu meet at night across the Milky Way. Since Mei-Shun often confuse 天の川 with 銀河, she checked up these words online. They say solar system is included in 天の川銀河 or 銀河系. However, there are a lot of the latter according to Shin.
